surprised by company OF friends
who came to spend the evening with
him. 1t was complete surprise.

gather in his absence. When he re-
turned he found quite company had
gathered. The evening was spent in
playing games and listening to some
fine music, which was furnished by
one of tie young ladies. After re-
freshments, which were served at
about 10 o'clock, more amusements
were again in order. At about half
